QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 30, 2014 -> 07:44 PM) Someone has to come off the 40 man. Adam Dunn sounds good.

Also the Sox don't have a game on Monday, so there's no point in making call ups official until Tuesday 9/2. With the Dunn/Konerko/Abreu coverage at DH/1B, there's no point in bringing Wilkins up for tomorrow other than something actually happening. Just my humble opinion.

Rodon probably done. 5 inn, 7 hits, 2 er, 3 bb, 7 k, 1 hbp 81 pitches-48 strikes.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Aug 30, 2014 -> 07:42 PM) Why does someone have to be getting traded? Maybe they are just giving Wilkins these last couple days off before the rosters expand on Sept. 1st as a reward for a tremendous season? I mean, I hope there is a trade, but twitter is dead right now on the rumor front. Charlotte has 3 games left. He was in the lineup tonight, and got scratched. Something is up.

I'm thinking postgame announcement. Dunn somewhere. That Seth Lakso guy in Charlotte is staying quiet.

Now 2nd and 3rd, nobody out.

It would be pretty cool if this is the last inning of minor league baseball Rodon ever pitches. (Other than a rehab assignment) 70th pitch goes for a single.

69 pitches. A WHIP over 2 tonight, but only 1 run. Whatever works.

Rodon 52 pitches through 3. I'm not sure the results matter. He's coming up.

Hug watch? Wilkins called up.

Not so fun fact- When the Sox hit fewer than 2 homers in a game, they are 36-66. 25-8 with 2 or more.

Very good.

I don't want to hear Hawk say "If Sale didn't have bad luck, he wouldn't have any luck at all", again.

Nice

Since June 15, 65 Games 93-251 (.371)

If Sale starts 32 games next year, he's winning a Cy. Period.

Seeing what Abreu and Eaton have done this year, and the money coming off the books, they should be able to field a team next year with pretty high expectations. Should be an interesting winter.

Sale at 75 pitches. 3 more innings would be nice, but it's going to have to be quick.

Watch...tonight will be a 2-1 game.

Last call, MLB. Last call for Adam Dunn.... You got 33-34 hours (I think)

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 30, 2014 -> 01:12 PM) Nice comeback for the team mailing it in. Nice comeback for the team that's 6-18 the last 24.

QUOTE (1dog @ Aug 30, 2014 -> 12:32 PM) It doesn't appear we have any. For instance, the fat POS playing 1B today, messing around with the first guy to get a single. Maybe it's just me, but I don't like that stuff. Abreu basically has a non-stop conversation with anyone that speaks Spanish over there too. I cannot STAND all of the grabass that goes on now. Two players can't stand next to each other with patting each other on the ass. It's bulls***. The first base chat---yeah, that's going to happen. But a guy hits a double, and an infielder is yukking it up with the guy as he's throwing the ball back to the pitcher? Nah. Don't like it.
